Description
PROCESS TO OBTAIN A ROUND SHAPED COLLAGEN CASING AND CASING
OBTAINED BY THE PROCESS
DESCRIPTION
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a process to obtain a round shaped collagen casing and to the casing obtained by the process, which is based on a post rounding of a straight collagen casing.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Most natural casings show round shape that is very versatile for example for ring bologna, ring liver sausage and mettwurst. The artificial casing industry continuously strives for developing competitive alternatives.
The patent application US4356201 describes rounded collagen casing produced by the extrusion of a gas inflated collagen tube, deposited on specially designed rotating segments responsible for continuous transformation of said straight tube into a rounded shape and its further transportation as such through the production line during crosslinking and drying.
In variants of this basic technique, the extruded collagen tube may be immediately coagulated by ammonia treatment inside and water dissolved salt solutions outside according patent with publication number US6436456 for thin walled edible rounds or it may be extruded and dried in an acidic status for thicker walled non edible rounds.
This common technique consumes a lot of energy for drying and requires a lot of manpower for running and maintaining the complex production line.
Furthermore the extrusion speed is limited. Due to the technically unavoidable friction some collagen is "rubbed off' and collected on the rotating transport rollers.
This weakens the resulting round shaped casing due to scuff and causes

Furthermore the extrusion speed is limited. Due to the technically unavoidable friction some collagen is "rubbed off' and collected on the rotating transport rollers.
This weakens the resulting round shaped casing due to scuff and causes
2 periodic production interruptions for cleaning.
The sensorial properties of round shaped artificial edibles are generally markedly worse than their natural alternatives.
These disadvantages are well-known to those skilled in the art. They are considered principally unavoidable due to the applied production technology.
Thus, from what is known in the art, it is derived that the development of a round shaped collagen casing and to the process to obtain it is still of great interest.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Inventors have found a process to obtain a round shaped collagen casing.
The process is based on post rounding of a straight collagen casing by controlled heat shrinking and the percentage of humidity and plasticizer of the casing.
Although the heat shrinking of collagen is well-known, it has never been applied for post rounding of a straight collagen casing. Inventors assume that it has been excluded due to the expected/supposed structural damage of collagen. Inventors surprisingly found out, that heavy damage of collagen can be avoided, when these parameters are well controlled.
Therefore an aspect of the invention refers to a process to obtain a round shaped collagen casing comprising the steps of:
a) guiding a straight inflated collagen casing which has a humidity between the 12% to the 30% balanced to the total weight of the casing and contains collagen plasticizer between 12% to 24% balanced to the total weight of the casing and an inside gas pressure between 20 to 700 mbar to a heat transfer unit;
b) transferring heat energy to the casing by a heat transfer unit to obtain a round shaped collagen casing, wherein the temperature achieved in the innermost ring of the casing is higher than the shrinkage temperature of collagen casing;
c) supporting the round shaped collagen casing by a round element.
In this invention the round shaped is obtained by the different reduction in length

b) transferring heat energy to the casing by a heat transfer unit to obtain a round shaped collagen casing, wherein the temperature achieved in the innermost ring of the casing is higher than the shrinkage temperature of collagen casing;
c) supporting the round shaped collagen casing by a round element.
In this invention the round shaped is obtained by the different reduction in length
3 of the innermost and the outermost ring of the casing. The ring that achieves a higher temperature reduces more the length, this ring is named innermost ring. The innermost ring shrinks more than the outermost ring and the round shape is obtained.
Please see the Figure 3 wherein is described the parts of the round casing. The Figure 3 describes the post rounded casing by its parameters, innermost ring of the post rounded casing (13), the outermost ring of the post rounded casing (14), the inner ring diameter of the post rounded casing (15), the outer ring diameter of the post rounded casing (16) and the calibre of the post rounded casing (17).
When the collagen casing has higher percentage of humidity and higher percentage of plasticizer than the percentages cited in the first aspect of the invention, the risk of heat degradation of the casing is increased.
The rounded collagen casings of the present invention can be clearly differentiated from round shaped collagen casings of the conventional production technique because as the heat modified the collagen structure, the heat shrunk casing areas does not show the typical properties of intact collagen. The denaturing of collagen in the heat shrunk casing areas can be confirmed easily with conventional techniques that follow the change of properties in going from native to denatured collagen, as for example birefringence, that can be differentiated by means of a polarising microscope.
Also, heat shrunk casing areas are lowered of the characteristic X-ray interference of intact collagen. Chemical detection methods as the degree of digestion achievable with a trypsin digestion, or the differential staining with a typical stain for Collagen such as Sirius Red, can reveal the difference between the zones of the casing subject to the present invention. A simple visual check during the method can see that collagen is not rubbed off around the inner ring periphery of the rounded casing differentiating between the subject of the invention and the subject of the conventional method.
Therefore another aspect of the invention is a round shaped collagen casing obtained by the process of the invention.

In the figure 1 a particular process to obtain a round shaped collagen casing is described.
A straight collagen casing from a mother reel (1) or directly from the production dryer (2) is guided by means of the conveyor pair of rollers (3) through a water ring sprayer (5) and a ring blower (6), which is fed with heated air, not shown.
The thermo regulated roller (7) builds together with the flattening small roller (8) the uptake pair of rollers. The starting straight collagen casing may be already adjusted to the requested humidity or it may be inline re-humidified by passing the water ring sprayer (5).
A permanently captured inflated casing bubble (4) is maintained between the conveyor pair of rollers (3) and the uptake pair of rollers, thermo regulated roller (7) and small roller (8). The conveying pair of rollers (3) is designed for axial back and forward movement commanded by a diameter laser measuring unit, not shown, to regulate the inflation pressure and consequently the calibre of the straight casing prior to post rounding. The inflated casing bubble (4) is embraced around the thermo regulated roller

The air ring blower (6) and the casing bubble (4) are excentrics. The air ring blower (6) can be optionally assisted by additional heated air blower, directed to the flanks while the casing bubble (4) is embraced around the thermo regulated roller (7). Passing the air ring blower (6) the inflated casing bubble (4) heat shrinks along its inner ring periphery and becomes hereby post rounded. The post rounded casing is then further conveyed as finished product, that is the post rounded casing (9) to the reeling unit (10) or directly into the shirring machine (11).
The smaller the diameter of stainless steel thermoregulated roller (7), the smaller is the inner ring diameter (15) of the resulting post rounded casing (9). The surface temperature of the thermoregulated roller (7) is maintained between room temperature and the shrinking temperature of the starting casing.
Higher inflation pressure inside the casing bubble (4) minimises the inner ring diameter (15) of the post rounded casing (9) equalising it more and more to the diameter of the thermoregulated roller (7). Decreased inflation pressure in the casing bubble (4) consequently increases the inner ring diameter (15) of the resulting post rounded casing

Decreased inflation pressure in the casing bubble (4) consequently increases the inner ring diameter (15) of the resulting post rounded casing

Contact time between the casing bubble (4) and the thermoregulated roller (7) determines the post rounding speed. Longer contact time allows faster post rounding and vice versa. Maximum embracing of the casing bubble (4) around the thermoregulated roller (7) is preferred.
The temperature of the air flow through the air blower(s) (6) is always higher than the shrinkage temperature of the casing. It is however adjusted as low as possible to avoid excess heat degradation of the post rounded collagen casing (9).
The effective distribution of the heated air circumferentially around the casing bubble (4) is best achieved by positioning of the air ring blower (6) as close as possible to thermoregulated roller (7) as shown in figure 1. The flow rate of the heated air must be sufficient to actuate heat shrinking of the casing bubble (4).
The inner ring diameter (15) of the resulting post rounded casing (9) increases, when the uptake rollers, thermo regulated roller (7) and small roller (8) rotate faster and vice versa. Uptake rollers, thermo regulated roller (7) and small roller (8) however rotate principally slower than the conveyor pair of rollers (3) for realising post rounding.
Heavily crosslinked collagen casings require higher air temperatures blown trough the air blower (6) for heat shrinking and vice versa. Too high shrinking temperatures however should be principally avoided to avoid excess collagen degradation during post rounding.
The inventive method can be optimised according to these teachings by average researchers without leaving the frame of the present invention.
Some of the advantages of the present invention are: the process is carried out in a compacted rounding unit can be installed in line to the straight casing production or separately offline demanding only a limited space compared to the previous techniques.
The energy demand of the process described in the present invention is minimised.
Production logistics are extremely simplified, because mother reels of straight collagen casing are standard almost in all calibres. Deliveries to customers are therefore accelerated. The complex rotating segments of the conventional method requiring intensive maintenance and multiple man power are replaced by a simple and fully automated post rounding unit as exemplary shown in figure 1. No collagen is "rubbed off', therefore post rounded collagen casings having a thinner wall thickness can be produced, offering improved bite and chewing properties. The overall performance of the casings is improved, because it is no more limited by the specific technique of the prior conventional method.
In the following examples the invention is described in more detail however the invention is not limited by them.

The NDX casing is air inflated to 200 mbar and its bubble is captured between the conveyor pair of rollers (3) and the pair of rollers formed by the thermo regulated roller (7) and the small roller (8).

Example 1 A straight collagen NDX casing calibre 21, commercialised by Viscofan S.A./Spain, having 22 % humidity and 17 % glycerol as plasticiser balanced to its total weight is post rounded as by heat shrinking.
The mother reel of the chemically crosslinked NDX casing (1) is manually reeled off, conveyed through the conveyor pair of rollers (3) and further through the air ring blower (6) around the thermo regulated roller (7) to the uptake pair of rollers built by the thermo regulated roller (7) and the small roller (8) as illustrated in figure 1.
The NDX casing is air inflated to 200 mbar and its bubble is captured between the conveyor pair of rollers (3) and the pair of rollers formed by the thermo regulated roller (7) and the small roller (8). The casing bubble (4) is next tightly embraced to 3/4 around the thermo regulated roller (7) having a diameter of 115 mm.
